- I don’t know what the market is out there but it seems like $575 with all utilities included must mean rough building or neighborhood.

From my perspective, what financial tools would be available to me to utilize this status for profit? 

. - I decided I didn't want to mess with it because Im starting another project with higher potential return.Now, as an example, I look at this one:https://www.zillow.com/homes/63-GRANVUE-DRIVE-BELL...Its on the Auction block, if I picked it up for 2 or 3k, and sold it for 10k to someone else who wants to work with it, essentially a wholesale deal, and didn't spend any money fixing it up, and agreed to max 1k realtor fees if any, I might make some money on it.If you go to our county tax assessor site, and search '63 Granvue', youll see that 1) the total taxes for 2018 are $2981.38, and 2) they are paid by the bank already for 2018 http://www.co.st-clair.il.us/Pages/parcel.aspxWhat I am asking is - if I bought this at auction, and sold it within a couple of months as a property someone else can rehab, how would the property taxes work / what would I end up paying? 

Just pick up the phone and start calling around.

Who is responsible for utilities?

For example, in Columbus if you pick up a $40-60k SFH you should expect it to be in a C class neighborhood and rent for $700ish/mo.

Everything else, any motivators and techniques you pick up and employ to increase or 10X your life and productivity are a bonus. 

Currently we can pick it up for $95k and it needs about $30k in rehab. 

As far as qualifying goes, I wouldn’t worry since I believe you guys will pick to rent first thus giving you time to build up employment history.

Most banks take 30-45 days to close while my private money lender takes 14, a seller will always pick me over the financed buyers.
